Although Carolyn’s “home office” is only a makeshift fill-in for her studio, she is one of the fortunate individuals who can in fact work at home.  In addition to continuing to develop new works, she is creating and posting Art as an Occasional Medicine for Melancholy – a series of her paintings coupled with words of wisdom from others.

"The sea is a desert of waves,
a wilderness of water." -- Langston Hughes, poet, playwright, essential contributor to the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s
  
"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day,
listening to the murmur of water,
or watching the clouds float across the blue sky, is by no means waste of time." --
John Lubbock, 1st Baron Avebury
The Use of Life (1894), ch. IV: Recreation 
 
"You can't trust water: Even a straight stick turns crooked in it." -- W.C. Fields                                                                  

There is nothing like the north light in my Summit Studio. But, like everyone at this moment in time, I am making do with what I have and grateful to still be able to paint!
